I honestly can't believe how much this has blown up. I think it's pretty ridiculous actually. I'm not against it to the point where I'd waste so much time arguing about it, but I can't see how you guys desperately need this update to the point where you're making support banners and making far-fetched comparisons to try to prove a point. Anyway, again, I don't see why this update is so necessary or desperately sought-after. I can't imagine who would even read little status messages in the first place, but more importantly, you already have the ability to include a little status message in your signature. So why do you desperately need/want to have a status message under your avatar? It's really not that big of a difference. So yes I think it's a pointless update, but I'm not passionately against it because it's incredibly easy to implement and I can't imagine that it would have any huge negative consequences. Sure it may encourage people to put down inappropriate things, but they already have the ability to do that with the other custom profile fields and it's not that common of an offense. But again, this isn't necessary, I can't imagine that many/any people would even read the messages, and I can already find out everything I want to know by checking to see if you're online or not by looking at the banner under your avatar or by checking the Who is Online page to see which forum you are viewing. I don't need to know anything more than that.

Enough spamming and flaming you guys. I also moved the thread to Help & Advice. In the future please post all questions here :) Thanks!

Locked on request.

I think my heart just melted :shock: I'll be coming to steal him tonight...

I know :). By the way, the winner gets to choose the next months theme. That almost makes me not want to win :lol: I hate choosing things like this. I'm having a hard enough time deciding which picture I want to enter! I guess I'll enter this one: [hide=Un-Edited][/hide]

All threads like this ("You know you're a ____ if ___") belong in the following sticky in the Forum Games board: "You Know When You Have Been... When..."

My parents always bought me necessities (clothes, food, school stuff, etc.) but never gave me money to spend on my own or an allowance. They also buy me things that some people normally buy with allowance money (new phones when mine get old, new camera when mine got old, new computer, iPod, etc.), but there had to be a good reason. I can't just say "Hey that camera lens is hawt, buy it for me!" and they never gave me plain cash. Like indy500fan, I also did a few chores (mostly dishes) but I never got paid for it. But my parents are already very generous with what they buy me, so I'm certainly not complaining. At 14 the most you can do is really just babysit and walk dogs or something.

Unlocked and moved.

If you want to make a correction to one of Tip.it's calculators, please do so in the following forum: Maps & Calculators. Creating a thread in General Discussion to laugh about a mistake made by the Tip.it Crew doesn't help them and certainly doesn't make you look good.

What are you talking about? o.O It looks like most people in this thread have said General Discussion so far.

Since, like you said, half of the threads in General Discussion are speculation, if we create a subforum then what would even be left in General Discussion? I think that a subforum would break up the discussion too much, so I think it's fine as it is.

My stats don't show up 8-) I have no idea what my most frequently posted in forum would be anyway. I feel like I post everywhere :P I guess it could be BlogScape though since I've had a blog there since 2006. Plus my friends have blogs so I post on theirs too.

I like it :) As Nadril said - simple and effective. You could probably put the Customer Photo Gallery somewhere else to clear up the front page a little bit.

After a certain point, the "good" or "interesting" topics will come to an end, and there are only so many topics that are really worth discussing. There's a reason why there aren't as many thought-provoking threads anymore: because all of the thought-provoking subjects have already been chewed over a million times. If you want to see new and exciting threads, create one yourself. Can't think of one? Well now you know why there aren't that many anymore. It's HARD to think of a thought-provoking discussion that hasn't already been discussed. And if you see pointless, stupid topics that you don't think are topic-worthy, the absolute worst thing that you could do would be to reply to them. That just keep them bumped up to the top of the page even longer. If people IGNORED all the pointless threads, they would quickly cease to exist. But for some reason, most of the people on Tip.it don't seem to understand that.

I took a few pictures but I can't decide which one I want to enter yet :lol: I'll have to decide by the end of the week since I'll be gone for 3 weeks :P

Hmm I don't know if I can agree with that :P Anyway it looks incredible! I still want Cintiq though :P

This entire forum is dedicated to posting glitches that you find, so we do not need a single thread asking everyone to post their glitches here. Each person is allowed to create their own thread. Also, as several people have already stated, glitches should not be exploited. Doing so is a violation of the RuneScape Rules, and therefore also a violation of the Tip.it Forum Rules. If you find a glitch, you should report it and never do it again. If you intentionally repeat the glitch, that is called exploiting and if you are caught, it may result in your RuneScape account being banned. Locking this thread for reasons stated above and because most of the thread seems to be pretty off-topic anyway.

Congratulations!!! :thumbsup: Well-deserved :) I'm sure you'll be a huge help!

Yes, Jagex has contacted several sites and will probably continue to do so :)

--->READ THIS ENTIRE POST<--- I just went through three pages removing three pages of spam/flames. The amount of times that moderators have to clean this thread and post warnings is absolutely ridiculous and completely inappropriate. I've had to leave three or four warnings myself probably just within the past month or two, and I know that other moderators have left warnings here as well. The spamming and flaming has to stop. Both spamming and flaming are strictly against the Tip.it Forum Rules. Spamming is where you post a comment that is pointless, off-topic, does not contribute to the thread/discussion and/or is only a few words long. Flaming includes but is not limited to insulting users, making rude comments, pointless harassment towards an individual or group of people, and vulgarity. I have probably seen ALL of this in this thread and that is completely unacceptable. If you see a post that is spam, flames or violates the Tip.it Forum Rules in ANY way, DO NOT REPLY TO IT. If someone flames you, do not flame them back. If someone posts spam, do not comment on how pointless their post is. If someone is being rude to another individual or group of people, do not tell them to shape up, "gtfo" or stop being mean. Instead, report the offending post and ignore it. Any posts that violate the Tip.it Forum Rules that are reported WILL BE REMOVED BY A MODERATOR. You should not take matters into your own hands by putting the offender in his/her place by telling them off. If we see people causing more trouble here, there will be more consequences than just an over-arching warning posted on this thread.

Please do not post multiple threads for the same idea. You have already created a thread with this idea so the discussion may continue there:

Cannonballs are dreadfully slow but I'm pretty sure you make a profit. Adamant bolts (until 88 - then adamant plates) are much, much faster xp but cost quite a bit of money too. So cannonballs would be slow and adamant is fast, and I'm not sure what would be in between. I guess just using mithril instead of adamant maybe? There are far too many options when it comes to smithing :P I don't know if there really is an official "fast method," "cheap method," and "one in between." Most people do dragon bones on a gilded altar. I guess the cheapER method would be big bones on a gilded altar and then just continue down the list. But always use a gilded altar. I think ecto is more xp but much slower than a gilded altar? I've never done it before so I'm not sure. Well tanning hides isn't where the xp is. Crafting the tanned hides and making dragonhide armour is where the xp comes from. That would be the fast method (black being the fastest and green being the slowest). I've also heard that attaching orbs to staffs is good xp, but I've never done it myself (well I have, but not seriously) so I wouldn't know where it ranks xp-wise. ZMI is the fastest xp at ~45k an hour I think? Maybe 40k. But I think that's at slightly higher levels than where you are. I've never done it myself so anything I know about it is just from what I've heard other people say. At your level, making fire runes would be best. It's actually pretty descent xp, even at higher levels (not sure on exact xp/hour though). Use a dueling ring to teleport to the Dueling Arena, walk to the fire altar and craft runes, use the ring again to teleport to Castle Wars to bank.

I'll admit I don't know the full story, but I wouldn't blame your girlfriend. You should never do something that you're not comfortable with doing, and even if you do decide to do it, you should never follow through with it before doing thorough research, learning about side-effects, proper care/treatment, etc. If you had done a 2 second search on Google (I found Wikipedia), you would have found:
